So true. I have a few clients who would really benefit from a water rehab program that is part of the local hospital wellness program. Unfortunately, insurance does not pay for it. I know in cases where insurance has paid for stuff like this, with a little help from a physician, but it's not going to happen in these cases. I have offered to advocate and call the physician, but the offer has been refused.
On the other hand, I have to bite my tongue and not talk about some of the less than healthy things some of these people spend money on. We make stuff like hiking shoes a priority, because activity is so much a part of our lifestyle. I just hope that as activity becomes more of a prescription by physicians, more of these things will be paid for.
